No other authority covers real property law and practice related to title and off-title investigation, conveyancing, land registration systems, and title insurance; explains and illustrates step-by-step how to complete searches and registrations electronically; and analyzes relevant legislation and case law â€" all in one volume.

Title and off-title investigation and real estate conveyancing have been consistently documented as high-risk activities by E&OE claims history, case law, and title insurance claims statistics. Now more than ever you need to be aware of the law to protect your client from risk and yourself from negligence claims. The legal aspects and practice implications of title and off-title searching, land registration, conveyancing, and title and mortgage fraud and insurance are rapidly evolving. Title Searching and Conveyancing in Ontario, 7th Edition delivers a must-have toolbox of proactive risk management best practices for title and off-title investigation and review and conveyancing in the complex context of electronic registration and title insurance.

Title Searching and Conveyancing in Ontario, 7th Edition brings you fully up to date on changes and new developments since publication of the sixth edition in 2010. Author, Marguerite Moore, is a long-time educator on title and off-title investigation and land registration record systems. She has extensive expertise with both paper and electronic land records and registration systems including ELRS/TERS, Land Titles, Registry, and POLARIS.
